    I had rhe great opportunity to see Glen perform at the Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo in Austin Sunday. it was a great and very memorable show. His music has been around my whole life, and it was inspiring to see how he has his very talented children in the band and touring with him.I hope to hear more from them in the future. Thanks for the memories, and God bless you Glen Cambell.

    I was so proud of Glen on the Grammys and they did a great job of honoring him. When the country music awards did their tribute, I was upset. They had great singers TRY to sing his songs but they just didn’t have it, then he was called up on stage. I couldn’t believe it when he wasn’t allowed to sing! So thanks to the Grammys, it was an awesome tribute to the man whose music has been a part of my life since the 60s. No one will ever be able to replace his sound. I’m also thankful for his beautiful wife who has been a lightning rod in his life. Bless you Glen!

    My degree of respect for Glen Campbell and his family has soared after seeing the program on Fox News about Glen and his “Goodbye Tour.” What a wonderfully educational and inspirational program for everyone as Alzheimers affects virtually all of us, directly or indirectly. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to get to one of the performances. Thank you so very much to the Campbell family for sharing their experiences with us. What an amazing man with an incredible family!! My love and prayers go out to all of you!!

    Dear Glen, I just received a very interesting story about a doctor in Tampa, FL whose husband was diagnosed with moderate to almost severe Alzheimer’s. Please, please watch this short video about their story. He has improved tremendously! They aired the story on CBN.

    Your music has meant so much to me over the years. “I Will Arise and Go With Jesus” is one I would love to have, but it is not on iTunes. God Bless You, Glen Campbell!

    As a kid who grew up watching his show every week and listening to his music throughout my
    younger years, I have re-discoved how much i real y enjoy and admire Glen’s music, abilty and talent. He is a giant in the world of music and one one of the top songwriters,musicians and performers of our era. I wish him all the best in his battle with an unforgiving opponent.

    God Bless you Glen!

    We experienced Glen Campbell at the 2009 Calgary Folkfest and man what a treat. As a lad growing up, my folks would spin many GC discs at their dance parties and I came to appreciate the simple pleasure of the tunes in the day. In recent years I have travelled back to hear all those gems and listen to the stories Glen weaves. I do enjoy the nostalgia it brings and I am saddened to hear of his ailment, but not surprised that he is touring at least one last time. I will certainly carry that folkfest eve with me for a long time. legendary really.

    Someone has more musical knowledge at USA Today than the tone deaf morons that pick nominees for the Grammy Awards. You chose to give him a lifetime achievement award, instead of nominating his current work which is better than any of the albums up now. Guess you you can’t make great music and still be a legend. This album is every bit the match to Robert Plant and Alison Krause a few years back that won everything. Go figure!

    This man deserves more credit for his work…

    Glen and bagpipes. I saw Glen perform with the South Dakota Symphony for a PBS fund raiser in the late 90s. At the end of the performance he racked his Ovation guitar, picked up his bagpipes, and did a cool version of Amazing Grace. It was beautiful. I have followed Glen’s music my entire life, but never knew he played the pipes. I was so inspired I began taking bagpipe lessons the next week, and have since played sole as well as in three pipe bands over the past 11 years. Thanks Glen for your inspiration. A great example for the influence one can have on another’s life without even knowing it. It was a life changer for me.
